- HOW TO TEST PEAR DB
- ===================

-
- INTRODUCTION
- ============
-
- These are instructions for testing PEAR DB on a Windows machine using a
- Cygwin Bash shell. Adjust the paths and commands to match your system.
- This configuration is used because these precise steps are known to work.
-
- NOTE: You must log on as a user which has permissions to modify the
- contents of your PHP executable's directory. This is necessary for both
- configuring AND running the test system.
-
-
- INSTALLATION
- ============
-
- Obtain PHP's Test Framework
- ---------------------------
- If you don't have PHP's test framework, you need to obtain it. These
- steps include changing the working directory, downloading run-tests.php
- via CVS and copying the file into place. Change the revision flag in the
- CVS command as appropriate for your present version of PHP.
-
- cd c:/progra~1/php
- cvs -d :pserver:cvsread@cvs.php.net:/repository login # password is phpfi
- cvs -d :pserver:cvsread@cvs.php.net:/repository co -r PHP_4_3 \
- -d test php-src/run-tests.php
- cp test/run-tests.php .
- rm -rf test
-
-
- Obtain DB and its Test Framework
- --------------------------------
- Create a location to store the test installation of DB and its test
- scripts.
-
- mkdir d:/peartest
- cd d:/peartest
- cvs -d :pserver:cvsread@cvs.php.net:/repository co -P pear/DB
-
- We assume you already have the PEAR base package installed. If you
- don't, you will need to do so, but the instructions for doing that
- are beyond the scope of this document.
-
-
- Copy the Starter Shell Script and Edit the Paths
- ------------------------------------------------
- To make starting up each test run easier, we have included two shell
- scripts. The original files are named "run.cvs". They need to be
- renamed to "run" so CVS won't bother you with tracking them. Then,
- the paths and file names in them need to be set to those used by
- your system.
-
- cd pear/DB/tests
- cp run.cvs run
- chmod 755 run
- vi run
-
- cd driver
- cp run.cvs run
- chmod 755 run
- vi run
-
-
- Copy the Setup File and Edit the DSN's
- --------------------------------------
- The test suite contains a file that stores the DSN's needed to
- connect to your database. The original file is "setup.inc.cvs"
- and it needs to be renamed "setup.inc" so CVS won't track it.
- Then you'll need to edit the DSN's in it.
-
- cp setup.inc.cvs setup.inc
- vi setup.inc
-
-
- RUN THE TESTS
- =============
-
- To run all tests: ./run
- To run one test: ./run <test file name>
- Example: ./run db_parsedsn.phpt
-
-
- Test Types and Locations
- ------------------------
- tests Common PEAR DB tests
- tests/driver Common tests for all the drivers
-
-
- Results and What To Do With Them
- --------------------------------
- Each test that fails generates a .php (which you can execute), a .exp
- (the expected output), a .out (the test output) and a .diff (a diff -u
- from the .exp and .out files).
-
- If you run the tests, please report or fill the TEST CONFORMANCE table
- in the STATUS document. Before any commit to CVS be sure to run the
- tests and nothing got broken with the change.
-
- If you get the message "SKIP", means that the test it's not executed.
- Look at the DB/tests/driver/skipif.inc to see what's the problem
- (probably a connection problem).
